Home Theater: Group Warns of File-Sharing Risk

If you thought your PC security problems began and ended with those Sony rootkit CDs, think again. The watchdog organization stopbadware.org has issued a warning about the file-sharing service Kazaa: "We find that Kazaa is badware because it misleadingly advertises itself as spywarefree, does not completely remove all components during the uninstall process, interferes with computer use, and makes undisclosed modifications to other software." The group issued similar warnings about MediaPipe, a movie download program; Waterfalls 3, a screen saver; and even SpyAxe, which ironically enough bills itself as an anti-spyware program. Stopbadware.org is led by heavy hitters from the Harvard Law School and the Oxford Internet Institute with support from Google, Lenovo, and Sun Microsystems.

You may be better off picking the car up yourself and returning it to the airport at your convenience rather than placing your return transport needs into the hands of someone you don't even know. Even if you make the mistake of not booking your Cyprus car rental in advance you can still drive a bargain at the airport hire desks. At least you will have a great selection of hire agents all in one place to choose from. Failing all of the above the resorts are literally bristling with small menorca car hire agencies affiliated to the larger Cyprus car rental companies.
